Wow is this the most popular thread in the history of this site? If not it has to rank pretty high.

Thank you for this. Seems like they've given up trying to block adblock.

Here's another website that doesn't allow you to display content if you have ABP enabled:
https://bitly.com/cGFUdL OR https://j.mp/cGFUdL OR https://bitly.com/b3c8CS OR https://j.mp/b3c8CS
Any of these URLs takes you to » http://designyourhealthinsurance.com/bopwd.html
Then to » http://designyourhealthinsurance.com/pwdhere.html

Anyway, just in case you need it, password is: zailoh4AhW :P

Using Mozilla Firefox 3.6.25 on Windows.

Playing videos on 4od now requires you to disable adblocker software http://www.channel4.com/programmes/a-co ... d-side/4od

Any help?

It's being dealt with in this thread: forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=9403

Kongregate.com has started adblock behaviour detection via js; hiding element "kongregate.com###bumper_holder" still prevents the game from loading for 10/15 seconds. Users are not given the option to view non-obtrusive text ads.

So far, I've figured out to block detection with two simple lines of js via greasemonkey/scriptish (faking the adblock test results); game/content loading is anyway not delayed.

Here's another site:

All URLs beginning with http://mgjmp.com are blocking their content if you have ABP enabled, like this one.

More info here: http://mgcash.com/adblocknotice.php

Care to share the script I'm a total noob at web coding and I can't find the detection in the code nor have any knowledge of writing a script for greasemonkey

It looks like a scam but it might not be; anyway, that URL didn't start with mgjmp.com, but rather was http://lockmusic.me/dl/lock/25c5b95625d ... p.mp3.html

I think some wget wizardry is necessary here, but it could be a META refresh (I didn't have scripts enabled for any of the domains involved, but the redirection happened anyway).
